Dog Grooming in Lenox, TN

Good dog grooming Lenox families can count on starts with somebody reading the coat before the clippers come out. That has been the rule at Pet Styles Grooming Salon since March 2000, at our grooming salon and doggie bakery on Kirby-Whitten Parkway in Bartlett.

We groom all breeds, from Great Danes to Yorkies, and the owners have spent more than 40 years showing dogs in AKC rings. That background shows up in the small stuff. Clean feet, even lines, a face that still looks like your dog.

Seasonal Dog Grooming for Lenox Coats, From Pine Pollen to Sweetgum Balls

Every Mid-South spring has that week in April when a yellow film of pine pollen settles on cars, porches and every dark-coated dog in Lenox. It works down into the undercoat and makes skin itch. Come fall, the sweetgum trees drop their spiky balls across the yard, and a setter or a doodle can carry a dozen of them in its feathering after one lap of the fence.

So the season decides where we start. Spring visits lean on a long rinse and a check for hot spots. Fall visits start with the brush-out, picking burrs and gumballs loose by hand before the dog ever sees the tub. Our full service dog grooming covers both, plus the trim, the bath and the finish.

Patient De-Matting So Lenox Dogs Keep Their Coat

Water tightens a mat. Wet a tangled coat and the knot shrinks down against the skin, which is why we finish the de-matting before any bath. Our groomers work knots out with a comb and their fingers, one section at a time, and give the dog a break when it needs one.

Sometimes a mat sits too close to the skin to save. Then we call you first and talk it through, because a short, comfortable coat that grows back beats an hour of pulling. Lenox owners searching dog grooming near me usually want to know exactly this: will the groomer pick comfort over looks when it counts? Here, yes.

Hypo-Allergenic and Medicated Baths for Sticky Lenox Summers

July and August in Shelby County run so humid that a coat never quite dries after a romp outside, and damp coats breed hot spots. We match the bath to the skin, not the calendar. Hypo-allergenic for sensitive dogs, medicated for problem skin, flea and tick when the season calls for it, aromatherapy for the nervous ones.

Dry winter coats get a deep conditioning bath or a hot oil treatment instead. Every option is listed with our hypo-allergenic and medicated baths, and the groomer will tell you at drop-off which one your dog needs.

Teeth Brushing, Ear Cleaning and Nail Clipping Built Into Every Lenox Visit

The finishing work is part of every dog grooming Lenox appointment, not an upsell. Here is the order a dog moves through the table:

  1. Coat check, then a full brush down to the skin
  2. Knots and burrs worked out by hand
  3. Bath chosen for the skin and coat
  4. Teeth cleaned with a dog-safe toothbrush
  5. Ears wiped out and checked for redness
  6. Nails trimmed and filed, like all our canine manicures

Anal gland expression is available on request, and a de-shedding treatment is worth adding for double-coated breeds every spring.

Custom Cuts for Lenox Dogs, Great Danes to Yorkies

Show-ring habits stick. Our groomers learned from owners who spent four decades handling dogs in AKC rings, so a breed trim here follows the breed standard unless you ask for something else. Plenty of people do. A teddy-bear face, a short summer clip, a pop of pet-safe color on the ears.

Bring a photo if you have one, and your dog groomer will tell you honestly whether that coat can get there in one visit. Look through the all-breed custom cuts we do most and pick a starting point. This is professional dog grooming from people who still get excited about a well-finished Shih Tzu.

Lenox Dog Grooming Questions Owners Ask Us

Short answers to what Lenox callers ask most. Anything else, just call us.

  • Most coated breeds do best every four to six weeks, and doodles and Shih Tzus closer to four. Short-coated dogs can go longer, though a bath and nail clipping in between keeps them comfortable. For dog grooming Lenox owners never have to think about, book the next visit before you leave.

  • Yes, when space allows. Calling ahead at (901) 937-5277 is the safer bet, especially on Saturdays, and we can often find a same-day appointment.

  • It depends on the dog, the coat and the cut. We give every dog a specific pickup time at drop-off, and we call you personally as soon as your dog is ready.

  • We work mats out by hand whenever we can. If a mat is too tight against the skin to save, we call you before shaving and explain why, because comfort comes first.

  • Yes. Ask our receptionist to sign you up and you will earn points toward free groomings, baths and doggie bakery products.

  • We groom all breeds, from Great Danes to Yorkies. Big dogs get the same unhurried brush, bath and trim as the little ones.

  • Yes. Boarding is available seven days a week for dogs under 30 lbs, and doggie daycare runs during business hours. Call the salon for details.

  • Usually a hypo-allergenic or medicated bath, with a flea and tick bath in the warm months. Tell us what you have noticed at drop-off and the groomer will choose from there.
